The Lindores Abbey Casks of Lindores STR Wine Barriques is a limited-edition single malt whisky from the renowned Lowland distillery, Lindores Abbey. Bottled in 2022 by The Lindores Distilling Co. Ltd, this exceptional offering is part of the esteemed Casks of Lindores series. It is meticulously crafted and matured exclusively in shaved, toasted, and re-charred (STR) red wine barriques sourced from Spain, imparting a distinct and rich flavor profile, as well as a striking deep amber hue.
On the nose, this whisky reveals an intricate bouquet of apple, pear, sweet vanilla, and subtle fruitiness, complemented by undertones of butterscotch and citrus-infused vanilla pudding. The palate is vibrant and smooth, opening with a burst of citrus followed by a hint of bitterness. This is compounded by a rich array of flavors including cinnamon, oak, toffee, plums, honey, and apricot. The finish is medium-length and warm, leaving an enduring impression of complex spiciness and sweetness accentuated by wisps of wood smoke.
Lindores Abbey Distillery, rapidly gaining popularity as one of Scotland's premier distilleries, has demonstrated its prowess with the Casks of Lindores series, which includes three different expressions of their single malt whisky. The STR Wine Barriques is the second expression in this series, following the initial release matured in bourbon vats. Bottled at an uncommon limited-edition strength of 49.4% ABV, this particular release is a testament to the distillery's commitment to producing sophisticated and nuanced spirits.
